A Brief History: The 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 The Chevrolet Chevelle SS, Super Sport, is widely regarded as one of the purest expressions of the American muscle car formula. Introduced in the mid-1960s and reaching its peak during the 1968–1972 model years, the Chevelle SS combined aggressive styling, a wide range of high-performance engine options, and everyday usability in a package that appealed to an enormous range of buyers. The SS 396, powered by Chevrolet's legendary 396 cubic inch big-block V8, was the heart and soul of the Chevelle performance lineup for several years. Available in multiple states of tune, the 396 offered anywhere from 325 to 375 horsepower depending on the configuration, giving buyers the ability to tailor the car's performance to their needs. Backed by a close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission and a Positraction rear end, the SS 396 was a legitimate performance machine that could hold its own against anything Detroit produced during the muscle car era. The 1970 model year is considered by many collectors to be the high-water mark of Chevelle SS production, the styling was at its most aggressive and refined, the performance options were at their broadest, and the cars were built with a level of quality and attention to detail that reflected the fierce competition of the era. Today, fully restored and documented examples like this one are among the most prized collectibles in the classic car hobby, consistently appreciating in value and commanding respect at shows and auctions worldwide. Owning a 1970 Chevelle SS 396 with this level of documentation and restoration quality is owning a true piece of American automotive legend. Contact Duncan Automotive today and make it yours.
